"The east wind does not agree with Zhou Lang, and the spring of the bronze bird is locked in two Qiao." Compared with the first two sentences, these two sentences are discussion. This means that if Dongfeng did not help Zhou Yu back then, Er Qiao would have been deeply locked up by the bronze bird platform, and Jiangdong Er Qiao would have become Cao Gong's concubine. This refers to Zhou Yu's lucky victory over Cao Cao in the Battle of Chibi. For Cao Cao, it is also ambitious. His song "Singing to wine, how long is life? Like the morning dew, the days are bitter. ... The mountains never get too high, and the water never gets too deep. The Duke of Zhou spits out food, and the world returns to its heart." This is It shows that Cao Cao wants to maintain the unity of the country like Duke Zhou did. According to records, when Cao Cao attacked Soochow, because the northern soldiers were not used to water, Cao Cao connected the warships with iron chains to prevent them from shaking. At that time, the wind was blowing from the southeast. Zhou Yu adopted Huang Gai's strategy and used dozens of ships carrying grease and dry firewood to ride the southeast wind to Cao Cao's camp. He pretended to surrender. When he was approaching, he lit the grease and dry firewood and burned Cao's army Warship. We all know that the Battle of Chibi was a key battle in the history of the Three Kingdoms and one of the famous wars in ancient times. For the poet Du Mu, who was extremely proficient in war thoughts, he was very clear about the war process and its results, so he adopted a reverse thinking method and put forward the idea that "the east wind will not be in harmony with Zhou Lang". Although it is an idea, the objective historical status quo cannot be changed, but the way of thinking changes. For this war, the winning and losing sides will have to change, and history will have to be rewritten.
The poet Du Mu has unique thinking and novel insights. In a sense, he is not only very historically insightful, but also embodies the profound philosophy that "the development and change of anything has its accidental factors." , showing the beauty of the poem's conception.
That is to say, the court did not give Du Mu a chance, and his talents had nowhere to display
